Oakham Fitness Centre to Close?

Oakham Fitness Centre based in Princess Avenue is to close?

For some time now Oakham Town Council has been trying to sort out the mess it finds itself in with the fitness centre, it has been sublet to a on paying company.

No rent has been paid for some considerable time.

At tonight's council meeting the issue of the Fitness Centre was considered in at
a confidential session of the meeting with press and public excluded.

A slip up later in the meeting possibly revealed the councils decision.

At the point Councillors were considering approving the budget for 2012 -2013

Cllr Locket questioned the amount shown in the budget for rental income.

He said we had just decided the new tenant will be paying around £7,000 a year.

The Clerk responded the new tenant will not be moving in before April and therefore not paying
rent before April 2012 that is why the buget figure is lower, than what the councillor would expect.
